21 candidates to appear for OJS 2015 interview exam on Feb 22

BHUBANESWAR: A total 21 candidates have qualified to appear for the viva-voce (interview) of Odisha Judicial Services (OJS) Examinations – 2015 to be held on February 22 and 23.

As many as 250 students had appeared for the OJS written examination.

Candidates who will be qualifying this examination would be recruited as civil judges under the Odisha Judicial Service.

A notification was issued for 69 posts.

The Odisha Public Service Commission (OPSC) held the OJS preliminary exam afresh after losing its review petition in the Orissa High Court.

The court had ordered to hold fresh exam after some students moved the court citing errors in question papers.

Notably, citing mistakes in the question papers several OJS aspirants had moved the court seeking to scrap of the examination. The OPSC had challenged the order of the single judge bench in a writ appeal, but a division bench headed by Chief Justice D H Waghela upheld the earlier order.
